Mouse
A good quality gaming mouse makes a world of difference compared to your average desktop mouse. Most will come with additional features like quick clicking, vibration, and other customisation options like mouse sensitivity.
Between wired and wireless, the choice purely depends on your preferences and what you're comfortable with.
In our peripherals collection, you can find a wide selection of gaming mice with sleek designs, customisation options, and RGB lights, as well as a 4-in-1 bundle option containing a wired keyboard, mouse, headset, and gaming mat.
Mousepad
During intense gaming moments, you’ll inevitably start dragging your mouse across the desk for maximum precision. If the desk isn’t smooth enough or doesn’t offer the right adherence, you’ll find it difficult to move and might even hinder gameplay.
Most mousepads and gaming mats are usually made from smooth materials, specifically designed for your mouse to easily glide across without any friction. The best part is, you can get a mousepad design that really represents your style, for a gaming set-up that reflects your personality.

Audio Accessories
Besides visuals and easy controls, you'll need to consider the audio accessories. Unlike laptops, which come with integrated sound systems, your gaming PC will require external hardware such as:
Gaming Headset
While a simple pair of headphones could, in theory, work, gaming headsets have the added benefit of having an incorporated microphone. Competitive gamers often need to communicate verbally with their friends or teammates, either via in-game chat or secondary apps like Discord - which is where a mic comes in handy.

Gaming Speakers
If you're not a fan of headsets and want to listen to pumpy game soundtracks or your favourite playlists out loud, you'll need a good pair of speakers that can output rich, crisp audios. Each speaker model comes with differing connection types, including Bluetooth, USB, and wired connections. Here's our top pick for good quality sound experience:

£23.99 |
|
Streaming Accessories
If you want to take your gaming venture even further and start streaming for a wider audience online, your average headset mic won't do. You will need a professional streaming microphone that can output a much crisper voiceover, ensuring your fans can hear you loud and clear.
